Pros and Cons

  • Positives
  • Negatives
Volkswagen Golf GTI
  • Mind-blowing straight-line performance. 0-100kmph in 5.9 seconds, top speed of 250kmph!
  • Brilliant cornering ability — sharp steering, taut chassis and lots of grip.
  • Stock exhaust makes pops and crackles sounds like a sports car!
  • Ample features: 12.9” touchscreen, 10.25” driver’s display and Level 2 ADAS.
Volkswagen Golf GTI
  • Few feature misses: leatherette upholstery, front seat ventilation and powered front seats.
  • Hard, scratchy plastics used on the lower half of the dashboard and door pads feel out of place in an expensive car.
